Hello,

 

Someone told me that you can play USCF Rated matches here on Chess.com.  Is that true?

If so where or how?

Also is there somewhere that you can enter your USCF Membership Number ?

 

Thanks,

There are USCF tournaments in live chess. These affect a player's online USCF rating, but not OTB ratings. Check out https://www.chess.com/groups/home/uschess

For a little additional information, as far as I'm aware the USCF isn't planning on letting Chess.com hold USCF rated correspondence  tourneys, just Online Blitz and Online Quick.

 

I can't say that won't change in the future just what the current state is.

In order to make correspondence chess more accessible, I have organized a first-of-its-kind United States Chess Federation rated correspondence chess tournament on Chess.com. The format for this tournament will be a unique Pyramid Stepladder guaranteed to inspire chess players of all abilities to level-up! And who knows, maybe you’ll earn a master title from the United States Chess Federation while attempting to reach the top of the Pyramid. https://dailychessmusings.com/daily-chess-musings-rated-correspondence-pyramid/
